Work in pairs. Choose one place each to describe, e.g. the areas where you live. Take
turns making a positive statement about your own place like those below and hearing the
other person’s statement about the same thing. Each time decide which one sounds better
when you look at that aspect, and give a point to that person each time. If you agree that
they are more or less the same, you both get one point. The person with most points when
your teacher stops the game wins.
